Thoughts Are Things - Part 33

Normally one is not conscious of the workings of the mind. 

Most actions are performed subconsciously. 

 Therefore to be spiritual and take control of the mind you must develop

introspective powers which will give you insight to 
the working of the mind. 

 Then when this is accomplished
no thought however insignificant will go unnoticed.
